Thanks, for that.

/sarcasm

diff was at something like .04 when I posted that after 30 - 40 mins of 129Kh/s I found nothing.

I was just trying to look on the brighter side...

I quit mining because it's a fork of a coin that doesn't report network size, which drives me crazy.  Also I'm doing well mining another altcoin that has survived three days and still has an active dev.  (inorite??)

We'll see if I regret it, but I don't think we're due for another bitbar yet. And I'm not sure if proof-of-stake ala PPCoin is the way to handle a high-scarcity (targeted at hoarders) *coin. (er, gem excuse me)

So, I'll probably just watch this one.  And take donations...

~400 blocks since i started no orphans yet...



(Now if only i could hash a block)

I"m in with the yes.

If we can mine it, we should have a place to trade it.

I have 6 AM local, so far bitgem.

Wait, this will split and form 2 chains?  both will persist?


Innovative.  Crazy, but innovative.

Instamine x 2!

hmmm

So far a decent presentation, except for the installer being loaded with PPcoin logos and such.

I'd personally rather do without the installer altogether but, meh it's windows.  Though if every altcoin cluttered my registry I wouldn't mine so many, for sure.


Did you adjust PPcoin's proof of stake system at all?

I'll buy some bitgems 1:1 for doubloons!  (up to 5, PM me if you want to trade)

Oh I forgot:  gmP8KhkBmbDuazG4EzQw4gmWhrpBfw31i5  <- DONATE!!

I came in here to see how close the fork was and read this...


Seriously?

You would be in some deep **** if you did that to financial software in any regulated market.

The support staff on your own team would kill you, if it was  a heavily used/supported tool in any market.

I realize that in this particular situation it's probably not going to cause much harm.. Still, after years of QA and configuration management, that gives me a headache.

You should really version at this point, while you still have a tiny bit of time left before the fork. How much easier is it to say "make sure you are on v3" (for example) than to go through "Which version of v2 do you have? ...You don't know? .... Well download it again and see if you still have the problem..."

I mean, this is the exact reason that the ENTIRE GLOBAL SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT INDUSTRY agrees and uses version numbers on everything.

When you publish a mandatory upgrade to v 0.0.2-2 how many people are going to check their software, and be relieved that they "already have" the right version?

You've already floated two versions with the same ID and differing functionality.  In order to stop that from becoming a major problem for your product, I suggest you float a new version so that there is one version BEFORE the upgrade, and one version AFTER the upgrade.

No one should have to type this out for you at all. 

Hey if I put one of those here you fill it too?

o'course we aarrrrrgh

I can feel it!

You talked me into it, I got a wallet:

I switched my logo, for more power.

Then I had to do this:



c'mon, POWER ME UP!

ok I clicked'em both.

When you solo mine the wallet generates the work, it knows where to send the payment.

If you can't get the litecoins, take the doubloons!

OK!!

It seems that when you talk about difficulty adjustements in terms of time, it really means "In X number of blocks at the expected block generation rate".


So you would have to come up with a new method of recognizing difficulty reduction and performing it "on the fly" (between blocks) in every client at once in order to have the difficulty drop at your desired emergency interval.

It probably wouldn't be too hard to program in. at so many minutes after the previous block's time difficulty is adjusted by a predetermined amount?

At one point I thought there was a recovery method like this built into bitcoin, but then i found out i was wrong.

 

2 doubloons

blastbob how fast can you scrypt?
